I've always been a muffin person, I used to love waking up to my Mom's freshly made blueberry muffins each morning, not having to think twice about it. But now that I know those probably weren't the best choice for breakfast…I no longer get the same satisfaction as I eat my bowls of oatmeal & drink protein shakes(don't get me wrong those can be amazing too!) but I still missed my muffins..that is, until now. This muffin is everything a muffin should be. Moist, fluffy, a little crispy on top, lightly sweet with the tang of some plump, ripe blueberries scattered throughout..am I making you hungry yet? Not to mention the fact that with the Cor-fetti Whey they have an amazing cake-like flavour and pack an awesome protein punch along with enough fibre to keep you full until your next meal. Trust me, you won't go back to your old boring breakfast ever again…
Makes 1 GIANT Muffin
- 1/2 scoop cellucor Cor-fetti Whey (find it here: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/cellucor/cor-performance-whey.html)
- 2 tbsp almond flour
- 1 tbsp coconut flour
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 of a beaten egg (about 15g)
- 2 tbsp unsweetened apple sauce
- 2 tsp melted coconut oil
- 2 tbsp +1 tsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1/8 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 tbsp truvia sweetener (or more to taste)
- 1/4 cup frozen or raw blueberries (35g)
Directions: Preheat your oven to 375* spray a muffin tin with pam. Combine all of your dry ingredients except the sweetener, in a medium bowl and then mix all of your wet ingredients in another small bowl. (*Note, it will be easier if all your wet ingredients are at room temperature so the coconut oil stays melted). Pour the wet into the dry and stir to combine. Now add your sweetener to taste(use slightly more than you think because the sweetness tends to decrease while baking) Fold in your blueberries and save a few to place on top of the muffin just before baking. Place in the oven and bake for 15-20min or until a toothpick comes out clean. Enjoy warm with whatever toppings you like!
